Chapter 716: Don’t Be Fooled by the Trailer; This Must Be a Funny Game!
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
“Sir! Um… what’s the new game?!” On the morning of the next day, the elves who had finally finished their animated discussions about ‘The Avengers’ finally remembered the new game.
“Doesn’t it have a trailer?!”
“Oh. Aren’t you guys going to return to your elf forest?” Mr. Fang looked at the elves who came to the shop to play games every day.
“Elder.” Little Sala glanced at Elder Sewell beside her and asked, “Didn’t you say that you will apply for a teleportation array? Was the application approved?”
“Oh!” Elder Sewell patted her forehead.
“Did you forget it?!” Elf Girl Sala stared at her in suspicion.
“How is that possible!” Elder Sewell rolled her eyes at Sala and said, “Little Girl, don’t doubt your elder. Do you think I’m a forgetful person?!”
Elder Sewell said with great dignity, “It’s not a small issue to build a teleportation array connecting the Elf Clan with another nation! I need to demonstrate many benefits that we can obtain here to the Elder Council. I’ve only collected a small part of the evidence; it’s not enough yet.”
“Then, we must play some more games to get enough evidence?!” Sala asked cheerfully.
“What… what are you talking about?!” Elder Sewell’s pretty face reddened, and then she said solemnly, “I’ve sent a message to the Elder Council, telling them that the elf guard team that came out with me this time would obtain a huge leap in strength when we return. We’re here to do hard cultivation!”
We’ve been working so hard raiding instances and got such a fright from the so-called evil god!
Yes! We’re here for hard cultivation!
This girl is getting so unruly that she dares to tease me, an elder!
Then, Elder Sewell said with a serious expression, “Cultivate hard! Do you understand? You guys will protect Silver Moon Forest in the future!”
“Okay! Got it!”
“That is better.” Satisfied, Elder Sewell turned to look at Mr. Fang and said, “Sir, didn’t you say that there would be a new mystical realm? How about it? Do you have a trailer?”
“Sir, which workshop made it?” In their minds, the ‘East Continent’ had many ‘workshops’ which had made most of the games long ago, and that was why this shop could release new games faster and more frequently than the Dulan Workshop and Lava Workshop.
Of course, it must be noted that Mr. Fang’s shop was popular only in this area and not as well-known as the big workshops in other nations.
After all…
– In the Royal Magic Union of the Morning Light Empire outside Canglan City –
“How come I always hear people sing high praise of the ‘Blizzard Workshop’?” A mage dressed in a black mage’s robe complained, “They keep saying that ‘Blizzard’ is the best in the world! Everything originates from ‘Blizzard’! Seriously?! They brag about it everyday!”
“I was a bit curious about this ‘Blizzard Workshop’.” A blond mage said while shaking his head, “But I’m now tired of hearing their bragging. A bunch of morons! Is Blizzard their daddy or something?”
“Hey! Who are you talking about?”
“Who else? The mages led by Dicas are the most enthusiastic supporters!”
“They even claimed that it is the most realistic and vastest mystical realm…”
…
This was pretty much the current situation.
…
However, the new game clearly wasn’t a product of Blizzard.
“It’s Ubisoft this time,” Mr. Fang said.
“Ubisoft?!” Assassin Elina had just walked into the shop. Hearing the word ‘Ubisoft’, she strode over immediately.
What was Ubisoft? It was their faith!
“Is it a sequel to Assassin’s Creed?!” she asked excitedly.
“It’s not a game in the assassin series.” Mr. Fang shook his head and said, “Today, the trailer was released. You can watch it in the Super Theatre.”
“Then, when will the game be released?” While looking for a seat, Elf Girl Sala asked casually.
“Um…” While his face twitched, Mr. Fang glanced at the task on the System Interface and said, “It’s not decided yet.”
Is my mind very weak?! Why do I need to do special training?!
Mr. Fang looked disdainful.
The System replied, [If the Host thinks he has a tough mind, why not begin the training immediately?]
“No-!” Mr. Fang’s face stiffed.
To calm down his nerves, Mr. Fang went and made himself a bowl of instant noodles.
So… the release date was still undecided.
…
“Ya! Xiaoyue, you guys are early!” Seeing Xiaoyue and Little Bell were already online, the elves immediately sat down in the seats near to them.
“Morning!” Jiang Xiaoyue exited from the virtual reality mode and waved at the elves.
“Xiaoyue, do you want to eat some spicy sticks?” Sala took out a box of spicy sticks with a smile. “I bought a big box today!”
“I do-!” As a foodie, Xiaoyue’s eyes lit up at the mentioning of spicy sticks.
“Then, you must say ‘Sister Sala is the best! I like Sister Sala the most!’”
“Well…” Jiang Xiaoyue blushed.
Standing behind them with a bowl of instant noodles in his hands, Mr. Fang felt awkward, feeling like Xiaoyue would be easily lured away by a spicy stick.
Expressionlessly, Mr. Fang instructed (interrupted) with a bowl of instant noodles in his hands, “You can open Super Theatre, it is the most eye-catching one on the top.”
“Oh-!”
“Sir! Are you sure that Ubisoft didn’t release a new game of Assassin’s Creed?” Elina obviously was still thinking about Assassin’s Creed, and she asked while opening Super Theatre.
“Outlast?” Elina froze.
“What game is this…” Sala asked curiously while she gazed at the screen.
“It’s a survival game,” Mr. Fang explained, “You can see it from the name. It’s about… escaping from a dangerous place.”
Mr. Fang’s explanation was… not even better than no explanation.
“Isn’t it simple?” Elina looked confident. After all, she had escaped from the minions of the Judgement Godly Palace and the places full of traps many times even before she played Assassin’s Creed. “I’m good at this!”
“But… it looks so gloomy!” Little Bell only took one look of the trailer and immediately exited from virtual reality mode, covering its eyes with its hooves.
On the screen was a desolate sand-covered road leading to a nightmarish castle-like building.
As the camera entered the interior of the building, they saw dirty bloodstains in the gloomy ward-like rooms.
The whole space felt suffocating and heavy.
In the darkness, creepy figures would flash past occasionally.
In some places, it was pitch-black, and the players could only see things with the night vision function of the camera.
Through the night vision of the camera, the world on the screen looked grey, which added more gloominess to the place.
“It’s fine,” Sala said, “Don’t be fooled by the trailer! We were frightened by the evil god, but what happened?”
“Humph!” Sala said calmly, “I think this must be a hilarious game!”
